Dear listeners,

I have a new physical CD out called If I Had A Hammer, as well as new t-shirts, that sport the phrase (and song title), "I'm A Better Anarchist Than You." Check 'em out on my online store!

My latest 3 online-only albums, Spies Are Reading My Blog, Into A Prism and Everything Can Change, are available stream for free on my Bandcamp page. (For the latter two you can also download for free -- "Spies" download is $5+ donation.)

You can also download both the band and solo acoustic versions of Meanwhile In Afghanistan (for free). Pretty much everything I ever recorded in a studio prior to those recordings you'll find below here on Soundclick, one song at a time...

Giving away music is easy, but making a living is harder. If you want to help me continue to make a living and give away my music:

1) SUBSCRIBE to me -- make my dream of a fully crowdsourced career come true and gets lots of neat stuff, too!

I was reading Riki Ott's fantastic book, One Last Drop, about the Exxon Valdez disaster, just as the oil began to gush off the Louisiana coast. This song is about a particular incident in 1993 when fishermen blockaded the harbor.

I wrote this song after the last high school massacre. I don't remember where it was, but it followed the typical pattern ostracized teenage boy finally snaps and shoots pretty, popular girls who tend to ignore kids like him. There will be more.

During the Nazi holocaust in Europe there was a Japanese Schindler, and his name was Sempo Sugihara. I heard about him through my friend Ben Manski, who is alive today because of this man and his wife Yukiko.

This song is about a particularly legendary dog who I may have met, not sure, but in any case his name is Loukanikos and he has been photographed at every riot in Athens over the past two years, always right up in the faces of the police.
